Overview
Brief Summary
The thromboembolic disease is a common complication of patients admitted to conventional hospitalization units. To prevent such complications, thromboprophylaxis is indicated in high-risk patients identified with validated risk-assessment models such as Padua score and IMPROVE-VTE score. However, the relation between thromboembolic disease and inpatients is yet to be demonstrated in new clinical settings such as at home hospitalization units. Moreover, patient immobilization is key in the pathogenesis of thromboembolic complications: therefore, it is crucial to collect raw data of patient mobility during admission.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the thromboembolic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units with conventional hospitalization units.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Is the estimated thromboembolic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units similar to those admitted to conventional hospitalization units?
- Are the risk-assessment models used to predict thromboembolic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to conventional hospitalization units (Padua and IMPROVE-VTE score) valid in at home hospitalization patients?
Participants admitted with acute medical diseases to either a conventional hospitalization unit or at home hospitalization units will be included in a prospective registry in order to investigate the 90 days incidence of thromboembolic disease. A cohort of such patients will be controlled with triaxial accelerometer in order to collect raw data regarding patient mobility during admission.
Detailed Description
1953 patients will be recruited (1700 in at home hospitalization units and 253 in conventional hospitalization units). All patients must accept and sign the informed consent. After being admitted to the study, patients will be included in the prospective registry with baseline evaluation of basic clinical data, including risk-assessment models (Padua and IMPROVE-VTE scores), examination, ECG, self-assessed mobility, and biochemistry markers. Triaxial accelerometers will also record mobility and sleep time of 135 patients from conventional hospitalization units and 135 patients from at home hospitalization units, from which physical activity questionnaires (International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), The Spanish Short Version of the Minnesota Leisure Time Physical Activity Questionnaire (VREM)), handgrip strength, 30-second sit-to-stand test, the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), the Spanish Version of 5-level European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions (5-level EQ-5D), Fried frailty criteria and Lobo's cognitive mini-examination will also be obtained. All 1953 patients will be followed for 90 days after discharge to assess thromboembolic disease incidence (pulmonary embolism, deep venous thrombosis, and atrial fibrillation), major and clinically relevant non-major bleedings (according to International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Standards) and death.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Incidence of thrombotic events
Time Frame: Within 3 months after hospitalization
Incidence of thrombotic events (deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism) of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units and conventional hospitalization units
Estimated hemorrhagic risk at admission
Time Frame: Within 3 months after hospitalization
Estimated hemorrhagic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units and conventional hospitalization units will be measured with IMPROVE-Bleeding score (high or low risk). "IMPROVE-Bleeding" score is a risk assessment model that scores from 0 to 33, with a score of 7 or higher identifying patients at "high risk" of hemorrhagic events.
Accelerometry
Time Frame: The duration of the hospitalization, from 0,9 days to 9 days
A GENEActiv watch will be used on left wrist at a sampling rate of 85,70 Hz to measure movement in the x, y, and z direction. The results will be the duration of sleep, the time spent in sedentary attitudes and the amount of light, moderate and vigorous physical activity. All the outcomes may range from 1 to 1440 minutes per day.
Estimated thrombotic risk at admission measured with Padua score
Time Frame: Within 3 months after hospitalization
Estimated thrombotic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units and conventional hospitalization units will be measured with Padua score (high or low risk). "Padua" score is a risk assessment model that scores from 0 to 20, with a score of 4 or higher identifying patients at "high risk" of thromboembolic disease.
Incidence of atrial fibrillation diagnosis
Time Frame: Within 3 months after hospitalization
Incidence of atrial fibrillation diagnosis in patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units and conventional hospitalization units
Estimated thrombotic risk at admission measured with IMPROVE-VTE score
Time Frame: Within 3 months after hospitalization
Estimated thrombotic risk of patients admitted with acute medical diseases to at home hospitalization units and conventional hospitalization units will be measured with IMPROVE-VTE score (high or low risk). "IMPROVE-VTE" score is a risk assessment model that scores from 0 to 12, with a score of 2 or higher identifying patients at "high risk" of thromboembolic disease.
